I had a client install 2000 SP4 but they didn't archive
the files for easy removal. Now they're having an issue
with a backup device which was working fine before SP4. I
need to remove SP4 and troubleshoot from there. Can
anyone point me to a KB article with step by step
procedures for this? Thanks.
 
Go to the conyrol panel and scroll down to sp4
installation, use add remove and this may require a reboot.
 
unfortunately it is not an option in add/remove

try a repair install by booting from CD and following the repair
install process... this should return it all to the original CD
version.
 
I think that is my only option at this point Steve.
Hopefully I can get them back to SP1 and then up to SP3
where they were and working fine. Thanks!

Simply boot from the Win2K installation CD. You'll be offered the
opportunity to delete, create, and/or format the system partition as
part of the installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the
order of boot devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
